The landscape of plant genomics after 20 years

Abstract

Many letters of the plant genetic code have been read since the first plant genome was published in 2000 for Arabidopsis. In a recent paper, Marks et al. examined 798 plant genomes and provide a current view of plant genomics in terms of the quality of the assemblies, coupled with their taxonomical and geographical distribution.

Keywords: biodiversity; genome; plant; plant genomics; sequencing.
